Snap [emoji22]Maybe VW didnt trick the ECU as we can only manage around 25mpg no matter what length of journey or lightness of foot.

Ours is averaging 30. Can get 35 on a long motorway trip. And we dont dawdle along either.Maybe VW didnt trick the ECU as we can only manage around 25mpg no matter what length of journey or lightness of foot.
my landcruser runs at about 15-20lt's a 100km it loves to drinkMaybe VW didnt trick the ECU as we can only manage around 25mpg no matter what length of journey or lightness of foot.
this is an incredible claim are you sure they use that much less fuel?Deutz have set the benchmark for fuel efficiency for nearly 2 decades. It's why agco still buy in deutz engines to assemble fendts when it makes far greater financial sense for them to fit their own in house Sisu. However without the deutz engine, they could no longer claim fendts are frugal.
New Holland fpt engines have now taken the crown for the high horse four cylinder engine with a recent test of one mated to their new 8 speed dial clutch transmission model.
Deutz six cylinder engines still remain the most frugal tested by the independent DLG within Germany.
The deutz tractors that I run have saved enough fuel to buy many of the implements in my yard. Had I choosen a brand, say, painted a different green with yellow wheels, the cost of my dung spreader, bale wrapper, plough and 8m tedder would instead have been burnt in diesel.
